We give a new proof that every linear fractional map of the unit ball induces a bounded composition operator on the standard scale of Hilbert function spaces on the ball, and obtain norm bounds analogous to the standard one-variable…
This paper is the first input towards an open analogue of the quantum Kirwan map. We consider the adiabatic limit of the symplectic vortex equation over the unit disk for a Hamiltonian G-manifold with Lagrangian boundary condition, by…
We define a Gaussian measure on the space $H^0_J(M, L^N)$ of almost holomorphic sections of powers of an ample line bundle $L$ over a symplectic manifold $(M, \omega)$, and calculate the joint probability densities of sections taking…
In any dimension $2n \ge 6$ we show that certain spaces of symplectic embeddings of a polydisk into a product $B^4 \times \Bbb R^{2(n-2)}$ of a $4$-ball and Euclidean space, are not path connected. We also show that any pair of such…
This paper continues to carry out a foundational study of Banyaga topologies of a closed symplectic manifold [3]. Our intension in writing this paper is to provide several symplectic analogues of some results found in the study of…
We introduce a natural symplectic structure on the moduli space of quadratic differentials with simple zeros and describe its Darboux coordinate systems in terms of so-called homological coordinates. We then show that this structure…
Let $\OO$ be an orbit of the group of Hamiltonian symplectomorphisms acting on the space of Lagrangian submanifolds of a symplectic manifold $(X,\omega).$ We define a functional $\CC:\OO \to \R$ for each differential form $\beta$ of middle…
We study a new class of distances between Radon measures similar to those studied in a recent paper of Dolbeault-Nazaret-Savar\'e [DNS]. These distances (more correctly pseudo-distances because can assume the value $+\infty$) are defined…
This paper concerns the development and application of the multisymplectic Lagrangian and Hamiltonian formalism for nonlinear partial differential equations. In this theory, solutions of a PDE are sections of a fiber bundle $Y$ over a base…
Let $S$ be a closed, orientable surface of genus at least 2. The cotangent bundle of the "hyperbolic'' Teichm\"uller space of $S$ can be identified with the space $\CP$ of complex projective structures on $S$ through measured laminations,…
For a closed connected manifold N, we construct a family of functions on the Hamiltonian group G of the cotangent bundle T^*N, and a family of functions on the space of smooth functions with compact support on T^*N. These satisfy properties…
We formalize the ``metric bundle'' viewpoint by defining, for any smooth $n$--manifold $M$, the open fiberwise cones $\mathcal{G}^{p,q}\subset S^2\Tstar M$ of nondegenerate symmetric bilinear forms with fixed signature $(p,q)$, and we…
We propose a generalization of Haiman's conjecture on the diagonal coinvariant rings of real reflection groups to the context of irreducible quaternionic reflection groups (also known as symplectic reflection groups). For a reflection group…
We analyse the local geometric structure of self-similar sets with open set condition through the study of the properties of a distinguished family of spherical neighbourhoods, the typical balls. We quantify the complexity of the local…
We address the construction of four-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models on tangent bundles of arbitrary Hermitian symmetric spaces starting from projective superspace. Using a systematic way of solving the (infinite number…
In his classical argument, Rao derives the Riemannian distance corresponding to the Fisher metric using a mapping between the space of positive measures and Euclidean space. He obtains the Hellinger distance on the full space of measures…
Let $D$ be an effective divisor on a smooth projective variety $X$ over an algebraically closed field $k$ of characteristic $0$. We show that there is a one-to-one correspondence between the class of orthogonal (respectively, symplectic)…
The zero bias distribution $W^*$ of $W$, defined though the characterizing equation $\mathit{EW}f(W)=\sigma^2Ef'(W^*)$ for all smooth functions $f$, exists for all $W$ with mean zero and finite variance $\sigma^2$. For $W$ and $W^*$ defined…
In this paper, we study a new type of inverse problem on warped product Riemannian manifolds with connected boundary that we name warped balls. Using the symmetry of the geometry, we first define the set of Regge poles as the poles of the…
Let $X$ be a compact connected Riemann surface and $D$ an effective divisor on $X$. Let ${\mathcal N}_H(r,d)$ denote the moduli space of $D$-twisted stable Higgs bundles (a special class of Hitchin pairs) on $X$ of rank $r$ and degree $d$.…
